Rdrokit Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Welcome to the forum. Since I am retired (12 years now) I have a lot time on my hands. Ride motorcycles, play golf and just started a YouTube music channel you might like. Check it out when you get a chance.

Ken Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Hi Steve. Can you give a little more info on where you live. When I google "ban nong sabaeng" I get a village that is a fair bit from Chaiyaphum City. There is a Farang bar in Chaiyaphum City called The 1 Bar (also known as Ben's Bar). He plays all the sports on TV and there are a few Aussies there. Just a note though, he and his family just left for the UK for a holiday for a few weeks and the bar is closed until May 7.

swissie Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 5 hours ago, observer90210 said: And do you like Thai food ? Thai beer ? Thai people ? Thai society ? Of course he does. Can't think of any other reasons why a Farang would want to live in the Thai-Sticks. In this case, living without electricity, miles away from everything, gives it all a special touch. OP is doing fine. Searching for fellow Farangs, (resembling looking for a needle in a haystack), having already found a Catholic Church in a Buddhist Country indicates that he is making every effort to integrate into the Rural Thai Society. Also, OP has already discovered that older folks are treated with more respect than in the "west". (As long as they have Authority PLUS money). OP is starting from scrach here. Hopefully he soon finds some fellow Farangs, introducing him to a new world, far away from Sidney. = Above issues have been collected from OP's 3 different threads. Cheers.
